Flandreau Track and Field

Power. Love. Self-Discipline.

[Fred Duncan @Fred__Duncan]

Relaxation for speed

Most athletes try to sprint harder. The best sprinters know how to run relaxed.

Sprinting is a violent, high-output movement, but it’s also rhythmic and controlled. It’s fluid. And that’s where most athletes fall short.

Get hyped! #goFliers

From throwing in mud to throwing records📈...Vincent Ugwoke is that dude💪

He broke the @USFXCTF discus record with a heave of 63.72m that ranks him in the NCAA top five!

Don't complain about your facilities, THROW🥏

[Jarvis Jelen @SoDakRunner]

I care as much about raising the "floor" of our program as raising the "ceiling". What signals to team that what you're doing in training & what your culture is about is effective? A few outliers up front or everyone thriving? What signals to team that you care about everyone?

The kid in blue was raised right 🙌

BIG in the Front

What cues do you use to coach your athletes?

FISHING FOR RECORDS 👑

Just days after setting the men's 3,000m world record at Millrose Games, Fisher runs an astonishing 12:44.09 WORLD RECORD in the men's indoor 5,000m at the BU Valentine Invitational.

That demolishes the previous all-time mark of 12:49.60 held by Kenenisa Bekele.

"Be ready when your number's called." Keep working, help your team, and be ready for opportunities when they arise. Good things!

After playing just 10 minutes through the first three quarters, Addy O'Grady played the entire fourth quarter in place of Hannah Stuelke (foul trouble.)

O'Grady came through... finishing with 13 points in Iowa's upset over No. 4 USC.

She was ready for her name to be called.

There are 3 types of energies that champions have.

1. Positive energy
2. Competitive energy
3. Team first energy

When you have all three, you have something special.

Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman says they don’t love leaders who lead by example because they need leaders who are willing to hold people accountable.

Every great team has culture-builders who keep people connected and truth-tellers who hold people accountable.

[FloTrack @FloTrack]

Before @isaiahbond_ was preparing for the Cotton Bowl as a wide receiver for @TexasFootball, he was eating up the track at Buford High School (GA) 🤘

In 2021, Bond ran 10.51 (+0.5) to win the GHSA 6A 100m state title as a junior. He would also go on to win the 200m title in 21.19 (+1.0).
